Protest against the Lachta Center property project implemented through support of the city government, August, 30, 2016
On August, 30, Saint Petersburg witnessed a series of the so called single pickets staged by a group of social activists protesting the city government policies in the area of urban development and planning. The protest action was held in Nevsky prospect, in the down town area.

Single Pickets held on Tverskaya Street by the Tenants. They insist that thousand of tenants have had their housing simply taken away from them. Thousand medical personnel, teachers and aviation engineers and construction workers are being evicted all over Moscow.

In the early morning time, at about 6 a.m., on July, 11, 2016, as it had been promised, the tenants of the dormitory located in Stavropolskaya street, 17, Moscow saw court marshals and a riot police squad.
All these agents wearing militarized uniforms of all types, having helmets and carrying arms, were met by the house tenants who had gathered together at the entrance.
A TV crew and journalists were also there.

The City Plaza is a self-organized housing project for homeless refugees in the center of Athens that accommodates 400 people, among them 180 children. City Plaza is a 7-floor abandoned Hotel, which had remained unused for 7 years until it was squatted by activists and refugees in late April 2016.
City Plaza Refugee Accommodation Center emerged as a practical response to the repressive migration and border policies in Greece, the EU-Turkey Deal and the militarization of the borders. It is an answer from the social movements to the entrapment of tens of thousands of refugees in the Greek mainland, the mass detention of refugees in the border regions and the disastrous living conditions for homeless refugees in the cities and the huge, state-run camps.

Housing organisers from across Europe are coming together this weekend to protest against the adoption of the EU Urban Agenda by the 23 Housing Ministers of Europe in Amsterdam. A series of actions were planned by the European Action Coalition for the Right to Housing and to the City
, a network of groups fighting for housing justice across the continent.

On May, 18, 2016, a group of dormitory tenants in Moscow intended to get together in front of the Russian government office.
The people wanted to unfurl posters and billboards on the doorsteps for top officials who normally enter the governmental offices to get their attention attracted to the problem of grave violations of the housing rights of dormitory tenants in Moscow.
